Geohot ha aggiornato il suo blog con nuovi dettagli che sembrano porre la parola fine sulla ormai sua nota vicenda legale contro Sony: innanzitutto ci viene mostrato uno screenshot che testimonia come l'hacker abbia donato ben 10.000 dollari (il totale avanzato dalle donazioni più un extra da parte sua) alla EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) come aveva promesso tempo fa.
Poi, dopo un piccolo commento sulla vicenda, l'hacker si fa una sorta di mini intervista rispondendo a quelle che sono le domande più richieste negli ultimi giorni.

Questa la screenshot che testimonia la sua donazione:


Questo il commento dell'hacker:
Citazione:
As promised, all left over legal defense money, plus a little to bump it to a nice number, has been sent to the EFF. Thank you all so much for your support, without it, things could have been much worse.

This money goes to the EFF in hopes that America can one day again be a shining example of freedom, free of the DMCA and ACTA, and that private interest will never trump the ideas laid out in the constitution of privacy, ownership, and free speech.

At the end of the day, something I take comfort in. The PS3 got OWNED.
"Once the code works they'll never be able to take it away from us."


E questa infine la mini intervista:
Citazione:
Will you be continuing your work on Sony products anonymously?
Nah. As much as I don't respect the goons at Sony, I do respect the court.

Will future research on Sony products be chilled?
Nah. If you piss them off enough for them to pull out the legal team and their million dollar checkbook, worst thing that happens is you have to super swear to never do it again.

Will Sony do a better job with security next time?
LOL, I think they'll do a lot worse. It wouldn't surprise me if the people who did PS3 security were fired. And I'm curious as to who Sony is hiring for NGP security. Lawyers? Get the code to sign a contract that it won't have exploits? You shouldn't piss off the community of people who are actually talented at this stuff. Hell, maybe you even pissed off your engineering employees enough to leave some nice backdoors?
